Abstract :
A hysteresis model based on the Jiles-Atherton theory is incorporated into a power transformer model in an electromagnetic transient program (EMTP)-type program. The eddy current effects are also included in the same model. Comparisons are made between recorded and simulated waveforms using a single-phase distribution transformer. A good agreement is achieved between recorded and simulated data.
